Religion: A mixed bag.

Published by ninamckissock

I'm an author of non-fiction, registered nurse, former pilot and lover of beautifully well engineered cars. I adore dogs, horses, journeying to places in the world that challenge me intellectually and physically, a lover of Tuscan men and an explorer of food and cultures. My patients show me that life is to be lived fully, courageously and compassionately. Cause no harm to yourself or others.

Closer; we’re getting closer. I can feel and witness it within my dying patients and the people who attend my presentations. They ask honest, intelligent questions, and listen. I’m quite proud of them.

We’re getting closer to accepting that the world religions are not gentle, loving and forgiving. If pleasing your god is everything you live, will kill and die for, then this is not love. This is manipulation. But really; I am so happy that God is gay, schizophrenic, obese, anorexic, terminating unwanted pregnancies and downright ugly. Oh noooo, you say? Then what happened to your preaching to the world that we are created in the likeness and image of God? They all claim to forgive but only by following their rules. That, ladies and gentlemen, is not love.

And you know that.

Muslim women cover themselves because they believe God is a man and men can’t concentrate with a female within their sight. Isn’t that insulting to men? And guys…we know that we can seduce and derail you by showing you a bit of ankle, the tone of our voice or the way we move our hands. C’mon, stop being idiots. Grow up. We know that men are deathly afraid of the power of a woman, so why don’t you join our powerful party and get real. Your penises won’t fall off and you’ll still be able to spread your seed. And the women who do want to have sex with you will do it honestly; not to avoid you harming them or to fluff up your ego. And they won’t lie to you. You know the best seduction is to get in her mind, and if you’re not a superior-acting asshole then she’ll be honest when she’s in bed with you. Why is this so hard for you to understand? Why?

Jewish men apologize too much while you’re dating or having sex with them, so they become annoying. (After a while, guys, when you keep saying that I’m way too cool and gorgeous for you, I’ll believe you and end the relationship.) Of course I’ll be labeled a bitch.

Organized religion is an unfunny joke, a farce, a way to manipulate us from truly loving, showing compassion to our self or others. It lacks kindness, gentleness, inclusion, and respect.

Life is about not causing harm to yourself or others, having a sense of humor that’s based on wisdom-not idiocy, and being grateful for all the little and big things.

That’s it. Embracing the mystery of what happens after you die can be met with curiosity and awe. The way you face it is your choice and if it causes you distress, then you’re perpetuating the myth of “not good enough,” “not deserving,” and a cruel God.
